Poll: Coke vs. Pepsi: Revelations

[Flames66]

I'm mildly alarmed about your tastebuds, OP.

I find that Pepsi is too sweet, whereas Coke can seem to just hit the spot, almost like a beer, but not really. Yeah, Coke is closer to root beer, and Pepsi is closer to 7up. Which makes sense in my mind.

You can't taste the difference between Coke and Pepsi?
Come on, they taste nothing alike. Well, i have heard that they differ from country to country very much (For example the water to mix it is always regional)

1. I can definitely taste the difference between Coke and Pepsi. Coke has a bit of a bolder flavor, but Pepsi has a much more sugary flavor to it. I find that if I'm in a situation where I can drink them ice cold, I prefer Coke. But if I'm in a situation where I'm stuck drinking a warm soda, I'd rather have the Pepsi. For some reason warm Coke has always tasted nasty to me. I think Pepsi is also the one with the better taste if you're stuck drinking it after it's gone flat, too.

How can you not tell the difference between coke and pepsi? This makes me genuinely irrationally angry! *punches a kitten*

I thought I'd quote you chaps for a little discussion value. I cannot taste the difference. I used to think all brown fizzy water was the same stuff with different labels. As far as my mouth is concerned Coke and Pepsi, and their respective diet versions, are all the same thing. If I ever buy cola I buy the large bottle of cheap replica for 17p because it tastes just like a £5 bottle of coke.

I personally prefer Dr. Pepper over both of them. I have no preference for one over the other though. However, the diet version of any soda can go fuck itself in the deepest reaches of hell.

I agree about Dr Pepper. I have also noticed that diet colas seem to have slightly more of an aftertaste.
